What is a Stud Earring?

What Exactly is a Lab Grown Diamond?
Also known as cultivated diamonds or cultured diamonds, lab grown diamonds are, as the name implies, lab created diamonds. They are “made” inside a lab using advanced technologies that replicate the natural environment where diamonds grow in the wild.
Lab Diamonds vs. Natural Diamonds
Natural diamonds can take millions of years to form within the crust of the earth. On the contrary, lab grown diamonds can be produced at a much faster pace while still having the same chemical structure and optical properties of its natural counterpart. Think of the process as being similar to that of genetically modifying fruits and produce. It is the same process that has allowed us to eat bananas without seeds.
Rising Popularity in Lab Diamonds
The history of the lab diamond is a bit hazy. Some evidence suggests they were being made as early as the late 1800s, though most reports state the 1940s as the origin date for lab grown diamonds. General Electric, the same company that makes your washer and dryer, is credited with creating the first batch of lab diamonds in 1954. Just a few decades later, during the 1970s, gem-quality stones became available, and, just a few years after that, in the 1980s, high quality lab grown diamonds took off and became commercially available. Today, lab diamonds are so ubiquitous and in such high demand that they have given rise to an industry worth tens of billions of dollars. They are being used in crafting everyone's favorite jewelry pieces, including stud earrings.
Pros of Lab Diamonds
Lab diamond jewelry offers plenty of perks and benefits - which are some of the reasons they make for the perfect pair of stud reasons. In addition to letting us fast-forward the diamond creation process, lab diamonds can give customers peace of mind by being more affordable and better for the environment.
Sustainability
Diamonds that have been buried deep in the earth's sediments for eons can oftentimes be hard to reach. Many scientists and environmentalists believe that the amount of energy that it takes to grow a diamond in a lab is less than the amount of energy required to dig a diamond out of the ground.
Affordability
Lab diamonds are generally less expensive than natural diamonds. This is specially the case for colored diamonds: since they are extremely rare, they are also very expensive. A colored diamond grown in a lab, however, is much more affordable, giving you an opportunity to wear lab grown diamond stud earrings in your favorite color without paying an exorbitant amount.
